Exploring the ancient and widespread veneration of the snake in religion, myth, and ritual, Ophiolatreia reveals how serpent worship has shaped spiritual life across centuries and cultures.

Mysterious, sacred, and often feared, the serpent is a symbol of power, transformation, and divine wisdom. Drawing from historical sources, sacred texts, and comparative mythology, Hargrave Jennings uncovers serpent symbolism in Egyptian, Hindu, Greek, and indigenous traditions. From the coiled serpent of the kundalini to the ouroboros and the dragons of Eastern lore, Ophiolatreia traces the figure of the snake through history and folklore.

Since its first publication in 1889, Ophiolatreia has stood as a compelling study of the serpent’s enduring place in symbolism and sacred belief.
